Hi Myra,
As you gain spinning experience, you will find that the fingers of your forward hand seem to develop a sense of timing - they know just when to clamp down and just when to release automatically. Practice is key, I practice a bit each day. One of these days I shall have that automatic setting back again, not there yet but at least I can spin. And I'm starting to be able to spindle again too - drop spindle, not large or small support since I don't yet have the fine motor control to snap the spindle well. But I keep trying
Back to your uneven yarn - you will find that when you wet finish the yarn that much of the uneven twist will be evened out. Water allows everything to relax back to its natural state as far as crimp & twist are concered. Llyn
